    @fatbastard looks like our seats in 130 are going in today. Yours is probably already in. I'm pretty sure once my seat is in I am allowed to enter the stadium after hours and sleep in it.

    Cool!
    Huh, 130 seats look slightly off-kilter compared to the sections next to it (I don't notice it in other adjacent sections)

    They're just compensating for the intoxicated derelicts who will be in that section. :)

    Closer to security hassling people for just having fun - the most action in the stadium the last few years

    Paper mills are bad. Eugene, OR, for example. Refineries & plastics companies are no bouquet of flowers either.

    But feed lots are worse. Worst smelling towns I've ever experienced are near feed lots in Kansas and Texas. Take the lovely acrid smell of eastern shore chicken houses, or Carolina pig farms, and scale up to a bajillion cattle all just eating and crapping...

    OK, this is even more tenuous now!

    It still annoys me that while United's crew works on making a park and the District's crew rebuilds a road and creates large sidewalks, the pole where the webcam was still remains.

    I've always thought that seats in the corners should be slightly turned towards the center of the field so that your line of sight would be better than just straight ahead towards the other corner. Is this what you mean by "slightly off-kilter"?

    I've also thought that the stadium should be slightly bowed or concave along the long sides so that corner seats would have a more unobstructed line of sight to the far end of the field.

    Our FO needs help, and MLS sends us wet-behind-the-ear rookies.

    MLS would have sent the f**king Galaxy FO a couple of Wharton tenured profs, cash, and a lecturer to be named later.

    I give, what's Mouafo really mean? Is it something one eats, is eaten by, or a by product of one of the preceding?

    I have no problem with entry level sales reps..it's who is managing and mentoring them that matters to me. Does anyone up the chain of command feel compelled to ensure these young people are good ambassadors for the club?
